Seems that whenever IGN talks about PlayStation Vita sales from Japan, the news is always bad. Units aren't moving and software isn't at the top of the charts. But today, Andriasang has a ray of hope. Seems that "a merchandizer" for Tsutaya, a big Japanese games retailer, posted a column stating that Persona 4 Golden preorders are more than double that of the preorders Persona 3 saw on the PlayStation 2. In the column's prediction of the June sales chart, this put Shin Megami Tensei: Persona 4 Golden in the fourth slot.

Will the bet pay off and will Vita finally have a success overseas? We'll find out next month -- the game arrives on June 14th -- but until then, let us know in the comments below if you're excited for Persona 4 Golden.
